Tours to Amelia Beach Resort Hotel. Resort Amelia Beach Resort Hotel - All Inclusive Amelia Beach Resort Spa 5

09.10.2019

The hotel is rated 5 stars. There are no complaints about nutrition, everything is very tasty and varied. No digestive problems. The sea is very close. The beach is great. There are many sun beds. Nearby is a bar and a fish restaurant. The sea is clean, just a little inconvenient to enter. The hotel room is clean, they gave themselves overlooking the mountains and the sea. Cleaning every day. The staff are friendly. The animation is perhaps a little short of 5 stars. But we generally liked it. Although there is nothing to compare with. We went for the first time and paid off. Only excursions are expensive from the tour operator, some. Better, probably, to look in the city.

In general, the hotel left a pleasant experience. Convenient and well-thought-out infrastructure, positive attitude of the staff, food is not diverse enough for the top five, but this is only in comparison, otherwise everything is delicious and there is only one fear ... extra pounds after rest. The beach also does not cause any negativity, everything is comfortable. There are disadvantages to this hotel, but they do not affect the rest. I recommend to visit.

9.4 Bought a 7 nights tour to Turkey

18.05.2019

I rested in Turkey 5 times. I always experience gastronomic joy and visual relaxation. I chose the hotel according to the possibilities. The priority was: close to the airport, first line, heated pool, good spa, grounds. The hotel was perfect. Food. Breakfasts: Understood the previous reviews about the small selection. I used to eat tightly in the morning. Not sweets and rolls. I ate the same thing - scrambled eggs / boiled eggs, separately picked vegetables, fruits. But I didn’t feel any discomfort from this either. But there were 4 baking tables (I was very happy with natural honey, but it was a couple of times). Dinner. That was the expanse, two types of fish, there was always meat, they always did something on the grill, very tasty! Grilled vegetables were also made. Two kinds of soup. Fruits (apples, pears, bananas, oranges, sometimes strawberries), a lot of vegetables (always thoroughly washed), but about cakes this should be a separate review, I'm a fan of Turkish sweets, I love it! There was always a lot and delicious! There was a separate refrigerator with 3 types of ice cream. Tasty. Dinner. Looks like lunch. I have always been well-fed and happy because there is no need to cook! No need to wash the dishes! The selection is great and the food is delicious. There were no digestive problems. I won't write anything about alcohol, I don't drink. The chamomile tea was delicious, I don't like coffee, and I don't drink from the vending machine. Basically I made a mix of mint, lime, orange in water, you can also cut a pear / apple. Territory. Large, well-groomed, flowers everywhere! I got to the flowering, very beautiful and the smell is gorgeous! There is a corner with livestock: sheep, ducks, geese, chickens, turkeys and camels. Beach. They are trying to remove stones. I saw how they are collected. But these are not beaches with white sand and you need to be prepared for this. The beach has its own bar and kitchen. They also make fish / chicken / meat on the grill. Was in the off-season, so there are few people. There was always a place in the dining room, sun loungers by the pool and by the sea. Someone wrote about the fact that there is nowhere to go nearby. Yes it is. All shops are in their hotel. Go to Side / Manavgat by bus for about 20 minutes, faster by car. The bus will stop by itself. There are tariffs around the city of Manavgat, they took me around Side by car. Russian administrators work at the reception at the hotel, they tell everything if you have any questions. Internet only at the reception. The room will already be paid. I would like to note the master's exquisite taste in music. There was always great music! My ears were resting, whoever listens to jazz, relaxation, classics will be happy. There were no animators yet. It was quiet and calm. The hotel spa is not bad. I took the course and was always well missed. Sauna, hammam, steam room are free. The jamb was in the spa showers, they just didn't work. The hotel is not bad, but if you want to eat all day seafood, luxury and wealth, see another option. The room is large, the mattress is good, there were no problems with water. Cleaning every day. I knew what I wanted and where I was going. This hotel had everything. Have a nice rest, everyone!

3.5 stars instead of 5 stars. : (Of the minuses: we went, there is absolutely nowhere to go, they save on fruit (while watermelons and strawberries are only sold for money). Around the wasteland.: (The rooms on the sea are very noisy (you can hear the animation). Geese from the petting zoo walk freely around the territory hotel and leave excrement on the lawns.In general, it is not suitable for children with a small child under 1.5-2 years old, especially during the period "I put everything in my mouth" and for children who have a clear daily routine.

The hotel is located across the street from the beach, you need to go through a tunnel under the road. The city is 10 km away, we walked around the market. The food is good, rich, after the holidays they cut a little. Rooms are good, cleaned daily. The beach is pebbly, the water is good, from the pier we watched the fish, even fed them. There is also a restaurant, sun beds, free shower. Slides on the territory. The room is good, but for some reason when you open the balcony, the air conditioner turns off. The cleaning service was great every day. There was almost no wifi. Hotel for a solid four.

    Hello! I can not help but leave a review about this hotel and about the tour operator with whom we went - Anex Tour. Accommodation. I went to Turkey for the first time with a child. There were no problems with departure.… More ▾ Hello! I can not help but leave a review about this hotel and about the tour operator with whom we went - Anex Tour.
    Accommodation.
    I went to Turkey for the first time with a child. There were no problems with departure. We were the first to be brought to the hotel, the guide Olga, accompanying us, escorted us to the reception desk and citing the fact that “she still had a full bus” left. They give me a questionnaire to fill out, and then I understand that the reception staff, to my surprise, does not speak Russian at all. Although the seller of the ticket Anex assured on his website that the staff speaks Russian. At first I was confused, then I switched to English (I speak badly, but I can explain myself). I explain: "We are guests of your hotel, and it is not my problem that you do not speak Russian, please invite someone who speaks Russian." He replies: “Are you guests? So, you are in Turkey, speak Turkish! And the Russian-speaking person left an hour ago ”(meaning the guide who brought us). And then the English refused to understand. That is, he didn’t answer the question of where to go for lunch! "Don't understand!" The guy who brought us the suitcase was more welcoming. He explained something as best he could, although more with gestures. If you say: money was needed, it doesn't matter, then I talked to people - even money in a passport would not play a role. This is not the point at all. The Sultan hotel guide arrived only in the evening. But no use from him! Of course, we decided something with his help - we moved to another room (due to the noise in the corridor and the pumping station in the window), but during our stay we saw him 3 times. Ie when it is needed - it is not. I got the impression that he would only sell excursions and that's it, and let the tourists deal with the problems themselves.
    Number.
    The room is good, the cleaning is so-so. Even the tip left on the cleaning did not affect. There was a glaring case. I got up in the middle of the night, turned on the light - in the corridor there was a huge cockroach the size of a date! These are found in our south. Naturally knocked down. I left it where I was, I think I'll take it to the reception in the morning. Then the Germans came to the next room, turned on the TV. I do not sleep, I get up again, and the horror that I experienced cannot be conveyed: a black swarm of ants who came to the feast around the cockroach I killed! I am terrified. Where? We didn't carry food to the room. In the morning I come to the reception and explain in English that there are cockroaches and ants in the room - naturally he pretends that he does not understand me. Calls the girl of the guide from Tez tour for help. I tell her, she with big eyes asks: "Who did you buy the tour from?" Fine! Who cares who! This is the hotel! The room was removed and that's it. No apologies for any inconvenience caused. Then after 3 days they put a leaflet in the room with information that the hotel would be disinfected.
    Animation.
    Who travels with children, be prepared that you yourself will entertain them. The animators speak only German. During the day they are not visible. There is a room for the kids, but how many times we went in, it was closed. The town, which is very beautiful in their photo, is just empty rooms inside. When we came for the first time, for some reason the simulators were lying on the playground! On the territory of the town there is a playground with a swing. In the afternoon, animators invite kids to darts, near the pools, but they told mine you were still young (7 years old) and sent them back. In the evening in the amphitheater, children's songs and dances in German with the same presenter.
    Restaurants.
    The food is delicious, plentiful. The breakfasts are monotonous. But there is also milk porridge and fresh juice. It costs 1 euro. Just juice that is free - chemistry, we did not drink it. I thought that hotel Turkey lives more on the dollar, but no - the euro. They will recalculate, of course, but the euro-dollar rate is a big difference. So I advise you to take equal amounts of both euros and dollars. At 4 o'clock tea on the street terrace of the restaurant, ice cream, pastries. They bake flat cakes. In general, the food is in order. A la carte was visited by 2 out of 3. I did not like Chinese at all - not just what is stated in the menu and not tasty. We regretted that we had gone. in the evening in the main restaurant there was a Turkish evening. The Turkish restaurant Tulip is beautiful and the food is pleasant. I advise.
    I was horrified in public restaurants from furniture and tablecloths on the tables. And I'm not alone. Preparation for the season apparently does not concern them at all. Shabby, dirty, greasy chairs and armchairs! The tablecloths are like in our canteens. This is definitely not 5 stars. Why should I ruin my clothes and my appetite by paying a lot of money? For this considerable money, guests have the right to count on CLEANLINESS!
    Sea.
    The sea is clean, but it was cool for us. The beach is not very clean. The beach battle begins to work not at 7 am before the arrival of vacationers, but already late in the morning, when the beach is full of people. Sand (grated shell rock) with pebbles - tin. The entrance to the sea is the same. Without shoes in any way. Sometimes rubbish floats. Blue flag for that?
    Pools.
    Large, there are a lot of places, but sun loungers near the pools even in the morning cannot be found. Although they ask guests "not to reserve sun beds and places in the restaurant" they still do it. In the morning, the pool is still empty, and there are towels on the sun loungers. Children's pool for toddlers - 36 cm. For older children like mine there is nothing to do there - knee-deep. We went to the pool by the spa. The jacuzzi doesn't work there, but it's quieter there.
    SPA-center.
    That's where the friendly staff is! Paid services - spa. The rest is the use of the sauna, steam bath, etc. - free.
    Guests.
    Mostly, of course, Germans. Many Russian Germans - probably those who have left for permanent residence, speak German and Russian, so be careful in your words, keep in mind that they may understand you! Europe - Poland, Czech Republic, French and Spanish are heard. They all behave differently.
    Bottom line.
    The hotel itself is not bad, but as many agreed with me, with whom I met, it is not at all 5 stars. Tour operators selling this hotel here MUST be honest with tourists: many things do not match the stated! I didn’t like that they smoke, wherever possible and impossible. There are no tablets except in the room! Do not prohibit, so you can! Could it be possible to set aside smoking areas and protect non-smokers, and most importantly children, from tobacco smoke? Why should I breathe this? All over Turkey this year the concept of summer 2012 is valid - no smoking! There seems to be a different dimension here. The hotel management should also take care of the Russian-speaking staff at least at the reception. After all, we, like the Germans and everyone else, pay money for the rest in your hotel and the attitude towards guests should be the same, no matter what the cost of my room.

    The hotel area is well-groomed 5 points, the beach is just a huge 5 points - pebbles and a strip of sand, 2 minutes to the sea, through a flower tunnel. There are not many people on the beach, the Germans and the Dutch swim in the pool. There are very few Russians, animation in English, a little in Russian, but we didn't need animation, we went with a company of 13 people. Children and parents liked the hotel very much, you can go for the second time. Clean, nice, comfortable. There is not a soul around the hotel ....

    Rest 22.04.2010-29.04.2010. Check-in. Hotel. We sat down, flew in, met. Everything is very organized, no procrastination. The first thing I said after checking in was "Gorgeous!" Territory. Big. Two large swimming pools with a depth of 1.4 meters. 1 pool with slides (4 pieces). 1 pool for crumbs (knee-deep), it also has a tiny slide. The playground for children seemed to me quite decent. A castle was built there. There are different swings. Bars and restaurants. There are 4 bars in total: 2 in the hotel, 1 near the pools, 1 on the beach ....

    We had a rest from 28.06.09-10.07.2009 as a family. I liked the hotel very much. There were really problems with the cleaning, but it is understandable that the staff was not yet trained to the end, but we helped to train them, insisting on better and timely cleaning of the room in front of the hotel managers, the hotel staff turned out to be responsive and all our whims were satisfied and fulfilled, cleaned if necessary and the second time. The view from the room was just superb. The food was at the level of shrimp meat fish, the restaurant spent ...

    Hotel reviews 2009 of the year

    Rested from June 14-26, 2009. From Tez tour. I liked the hotel, new, fashionable and beautiful. Most of the holidaymakers are Russians. Not happy with the food, it seemed artificial. There are few real plants. The beach is good, the beach bar too. Delicious pancakes were baked. The animation is not very good. Poor cleaning in the rooms ....

    Rest time: from 08/16/2009 to 08/27/2009 Advantages: Beautiful, new, clean. Pleasant interiors in the lobbies, well-decorated grounds, large, well-appointed rooms. Disadvantages: German without knowledge. or English. language is difficult. Cocktails are only in the lobby bar, and even then they are paid. VERY overpriced in the hotel shops. Testimonial: I rested at the Amelia Beach Resort Hotel & Spa in August with my 17 year old son. I liked the rest very much! To be honest, before the trip I read all the reviews about the hotel and ...

    We rested in this wonderful hotel from June 25 to July 6 (me, husband and son of three years). I can't name any minuses, some pluses. Of course, on condition that you pay as much for the tour as we do - 56800r. The beach is good, the road to the sea via an underground passage is a huge plus, the rooms are modern (we had 1058 with a sea view), everything is new, the food is excellent, the animation is normal, the service is excellent ... In short, a wonderful hotel for families !!! If you have any questions, write and answer. PS. We went with my family for 2 days ...

    The hotel is super !!! We went together with my husband (24 years old), from 06/21/09 to 07/01/09. I didn't want to leave, because I liked everything very much. We found in this hotel everything that we wanted from the rest - swim in the sea, sunbathe, eat deliciously. Of course, the beach is still removed from the stones after big waves, but if there are no waves, then there are no dangerous stones either. The entrance to the sea is small pebbles, then larger, and after 3 meters it is already impossible to stand, it becomes immediately deep. We swim well and for a long time, so this entrance is special for us ...

    Hotel reviews 2008 of the year

    Review of Melia Beach resort hotel 5 stars We had a rest in September 2008. "Who wants to rest - he will rest!" But this hotel for rest "water-food-sleep" Flew through the company Tez-tour. This time I didn’t like having a rest with the representatives of this company: (I will make a reservation right away that everything is learned by comparison…) many Russians began to choose this company, therefore decent queues accumulate at the Teztur counters (Especially upon arrival); when it’s your turn, Tez’s employees will hand over the documents and quickly ...

    1. Check-in We arrived at the hotel at about one in the afternoon. We were immediately directed to lunch. We settled in exactly at 14:00. Before that, they said that the numbers were not ready yet. For a surcharge of $ 20, they offer a room with a sea view. It is overlooking the pool, where it is rather noisy during the day, so we refused. By the way, when we checked in, we filled out a small questionnaire, where we indicated that we were newlyweds, but we did not receive any compliment from the hotel during our entire stay in Turkey (suddenly this information will be relevant to someone). 2. Room Despite the fact that there were two of us, the room was given a triple and very spacious. Apparently, there are simply no smaller rooms in the hotel. The furniture is slightly shabby, but not striking. The door of the wardrobe did not close, it constantly rolled in the opposite direction. Husband several times got on a contrast shower, as someone wrote about here earlier. I didn’t feel it myself. 3. Cleaning Clean up as God will put on your soul. They can change one of two towels, they can not change at all. The bar was not always replenished. Once we asked the cleaning lady to come in 10 minutes, so no one in the room cleaned up that day. 4. Staff We did not notice any discrimination on the color of the bracelet. Absolutely all hotel employees were welcoming and friendly with us. The waiters were always interested in what to bring us from the drinks and immediately removed the dirty dishes from the tables. Olga, who is scolded by many here, turned out to be quite a pleasant girl. Of the reception staff, only she knows Russian in full. The rest speak English or German. Yes, you need to understand that not everyone knows Russian, because 70% of guests at the hotel are foreigners (mainly Germans and Poles). This is especially felt in the daytime, when most of our fellow citizens go to the sea, and only German is heard by the pool. 5. The hotel inside The hotel looks a little tired, but still modern. I would like to dwell on two points in more detail. The first is the elevator. The hotel room fund is so large that we did not always wait for the elevator. The central elevator, in general, has such a feature that you need to press the call button in the opposite direction to your direction (go down - press the up arrow and vice versa). Do not believe what is written on the ad. This is a Turkish flaw. The second is the hall. In the evenings, an unrealistic number of guests accumulates in the hall, but sooner or later there was always a place. The Internet worked flawlessly, even despite the large number of applicants. Neither in the restaurant, nor on the territory, nor in the rooms, WI-FI does not catch. 6. Food The food was very tasty and varied. For example, during a week of staying at a hotel, I counted 5 types of fish (and this is only in hot dishes). Mussels, squid and peeled little shrimps were served several times, and once unpeeled king prawns. Surprisingly, there was no queue for them. Apparently, people do not see beyond their noses, and then they scribble angry reviews. I also loved the vegetables and the grilled turkey. Huge selection of salty snacks, in particular cheese. I can say the same about sweets. Be sure to try real baklava - eat your mind! On the last day I tasted puddings, different from the store ones. From fruits - apples, oranges, grapefruit, peaches (very juicy), plums, kiwi, watermelon and melon. The latter, by the way, are no better than in our city. The soda did not seem diluted to me, especially since you can always ask not to put ice. Juices, too, in my opinion, are ordinary. If desired, a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice can be purchased at breakfast for 1 dollar or euro. Non-alcoholic cocktails for everybody, because they add something like jam, chemical in taste. By the way, milkshakes are not on the menu, but they are made - ask. Once a week, you can visit the a la carte restaurant (Turkish, Chinese, Italian or fish to choose from) free of charge. We were in Turkish - we rolled out of there in balls. The food is delicious and a lot! We did not find anything to do with the menu in the main restaurant - we were treated, indeed, to traditional dishes of Turkish cuisine. 7. Sea Walk literally a minute to the sea along the underground passage (through which you can get to the bus stop). The sea is clean and beautiful, but the bottom is not uniform: now small pebbles, now large, now boulders. Personally, it was VERY painful for me to go into the water, so I would advise you to buy special slippers (you can do this directly at the hotel). Alternatively, enter the water from the pier. True, it is quite deep there, and the coast is far away. Calculate your strength. Indeed, there is not a single hotel nearby, and as a result, there is no crowding of people on the beach. There was no problem finding a free sunbed either by the sea or by the pool. 8. Territory The territory of the hotel is huge, especially if you explore it from start to finish. The main disadvantage of the entire hotel complex is not a single signpost! If I had not read the reviews in advance, we would never have reached a mini-zoo, a football field and a playground. The pools are located at a decent distance from each other. If you want to relax in silence, there is a relaxation pool on the right side of the hotel, where there are usually few people and no music can be heard. 9. Entertainment We spent almost all our free time from eating and sunbathing on the tennis court, basketball court, water park or playing pingpong. Lighting for sports grounds is paid - $ 20 per hour, you can't play in cool hours of the day. Tennis rackets are given at the reception. The water park is open from 10 am to 12 pm and from 3 pm to 5 pm. No one really monitors safety, so be vigilant. The amusement park does not really work, but there is a good playground behind it. Children's animation is standard, as in all Turkish hotels. In my opinion, the animator is not bad, the children were drawn to him. However, I agree that the hotel is more for adults. Bad reviews were written about the evening show, but for some reason every time there was a full house in the amphitheater. Upon arrival, we got to the Turkish night with dancing in national costumes, a few days later there was another dance show - already at a higher level. In one evening, Miss Amelia was chosen from four contestants - both foreigners and Russians, it was fun and interesting. Once at dinner, lottery tickets were given out, and a lotto was held at the animation. The most ambitious event was on the Turkish Independence Day - a fire show, fireworks, foam party on the beach. 10. Exit to the city We left the hotel twice. The first time - on an excursion to Side from Biblio-Globus / Fit holiday costing 35 $ per person. The program turned out to be quite rich: the ancient city of Side, the olive museum, a boat trip along the Manavgat River, which flows into the Mediterranean Sea, an ascent to the ancient city in the mountains and a trip to the waterfall in Manavgat. All in all, the excursion was surprisingly worth it! The second time - on your own for a walk and shopping in Manavgat. You can get to the city by a shuttle organized by the hotel at a cost of $ 6 per person (you need to register for the trip in advance), or on your own by public transport for the same money. If you decide to go to Manavgat on your own, then you will need to get off the underground passage onto the road and wait for the bus with the Manavgat sign. The fare for intercity transport is $ 2 per person. Several city routes depart from the bus station in Manavgat, depending on the direction you choose. We went to Novo Mall by bus # 10. Public transport fares are $ 1 per person. Back to the hotel from the bus station, a bus departs with the inscription Cenger or Alanya. Travel time is 15-20 minutes one way. Enjoy your stay!

    The most DETAILED and HONEST review.

Once at dinner, lottery tickets were given out, and a lotto was held at the animation. The most ambitious event was on the Turkish Independence Day - a fire show, fireworks, foam party on the beach.

    10. Exit to the city

    We checked out of the hotel twice. The first time - on an excursion to Side from Biblio-Globus / Fit holiday costing 35 $ per person. The program turned out to be quite rich: the ancient city of Side, the olive museum, a boat trip along the Manavgat River, which flows into the Mediterranean Sea, an ascent to the ancient city in the mountains and a trip to the waterfall in Manavgat. All in all, the excursion was surprisingly worth it!

    The second time - on your own for a walk and shopping in Manavgat. You can get to the city by a shuttle organized by the hotel at a cost of $ 6 per person (you need to register for the trip in advance), or on your own by public transport for the same money. If you decide to go to Manavgat on your own, then you will need to get off the underground passage onto the road and wait for the bus with the Manavgat sign. The fare for intercity transport is $ 2 per person. Several city routes depart from the bus station in Manavgat, depending on the direction you choose. We went to Novo Mall by bus # 10. Public transport fares are $ 1 per person. Back to the hotel from the bus station, a bus departs with the inscription Cenger or Alanya. Travel time is 15-20 minutes one way.

    Enjoy your stay! 
